Confidential The Broad context of Sexual and Gender Based Violence in South Africa l. GBV Sexual and Domestic Violence seem to have stabilised at an unacceptably high level Often inappropriate indicators are used to assess increase Or decline leading to incorrect strategies and coping mechanisms l. The injurious nature, depth and breadth of its impact Does not seem to have been fully comprehended yet l. This Phenomenon has tremendous impact on the health and Justice systems l most of the time actual expenditure neither easy to quantify nor To recover from perpetrators (artrition & acquital rates). l. Prevention remains the most logical answer and yet most Illusive in its attainment. Even when achieve it is difficult to demonstrate due to the difficulty to prove that which has not happened.

Lessons to Learn l l l Multisectoral approach with a clearly defined delivery mechanisms viz. , the multidisciplinary TCC model works in fighting SGBV; Stakeholder involvement i. e. , consisting of government, civil society, business, religious and traditional leaders is very critical; Nothing Beats the Establishment of coordination & cooperation mechanisms amongst partners with clearly defined roles & responsibilities using Mo. U/SLAs; It is very difficult to implement programmes without an allocation of dedicated funding for multi-sectoral work on SGBV programmes; Assess frankly & realistically what SGBV programmes are up against with baseline to check & measure progress
